    That is a honey bee with a bluebottle in the first Image, Les. The antennae aren't visible but look at that very broad hind leg.

    Your butterfly is a Comma.

    I'm not sure about the cranefly. One of the Tipula species; maybe T. oleracea/paludosa?

    Is the damsel an immature Blue-tailed?
